When carrying them, +this will enhance the HUD by adding several interesting information such as the +coordinates or the viewing angles or enabling the use of the minimap. + +Current version: 0.1 + +## Dependencies +There is an optional dependency on default from Minetest Game. +It enables the use of crafting recipes. + +## Tools +The orienteering tools are used automatically. To use them, you only need to +have them somewhere in your main player inventory. Most tools add information +at the top section of your screen. The minimap is disabled by default, in this +mod you have to acquire the proper tool first. + +The following tools are available: + +* Altimeter: Shows height (Y) +* Triangulator: Shows X and Z coordinates +* Compass: Shows yaw (horizontal angle) +* Sextant: Shows pitch (vertical angle) +* Watch: Shows the time (hours and minutes). Leftclick to toggle between 12h + and 24h mode +* Speedometer: Shows speed in m/s (1 m = side length of a single cube) +* Automapper: Enables the usage of the minimap and radar (F7 key by default) +* GPS device: Shows X, Y, Z coordinates, yaw and time +* Quadcorder: Ultimate tool: Shows X, Y, Z coordinates, pitch, yaw, time, speed + and enables minimap/radar + +## Configuration recommendations +Note that in Minetest, it is also possible to access the coordinates, angles, +etc. through the debug menu, but this would be generally considered cheating as +this defeats the purpose of this mod. Try to resist this urge. + +To avoid accidentally enabling debug display with a keypress, you can add the +following line into your `minetest.conf`: + + keymap_toggle_debug = + + +## Crafting recipes +Crafting recipes are only available when the default mod is used. + +Legend: + +* S = Steel ingot +* C = Copper ingot +* B = Bronze ingot +* G = Gold ingot +* M = Mese crystal +* D = Diamond +* s = Stick +* g = Glass +* 1 = Altimeter +* 2 = Triangulator +* 3 = Compass +* 4 = Sextant +* 5 = Watch +* 6 = Speedometer +* 7 = Automapper +* 8 = GPS device + +### Altimeter + + C + C + C + +### Triangulator + + B + B B + +### Compass + + C + CsC + C + +### Sextant + + G + GGG + +#### Watch + + C + g + C + +### Speedometer + S + SsS + S + +### Automapper + GGG + MOM + GGG + +### GPS device + + G2G + 3B5 + S1S + +### Quadcorder + + GGG + 6D7 + 4D8 + + + + +## License +Everything is licensed under WTFPL. +
